A New BootmaRing System.

A new system of bootmaking has been
perfected in which the method of securing
the soles, uppers, and insoles together is
the exact reverse of the ordinary whole
sale system. In the latter the uppers are
attached to the insoles by small tacks, the
points of which in time protrude into the
wearer's feet, besides which their use is ac-
companied by other disadvantages. The
sole is then scored or channelled round to
receive the stitching, by which it is of
course weakened and the water-resisting
power greatly reduced. In the " Alb Intra
system the tacks are deity put into the
insole by handy machine, the fiat heads
of the nails being flush with the surface of
the insole and towards the wearer's feet
The insole is then placed on the last with
the points upwards, and the upper is
pulled over them and made fast BY means
Of hollow tool, with which the operator
passes down the leather over the point of
each nail. The sole is then placed over
the protruding points of the nails and
hammered down, few smart blows serv-
ing to secure the sole to the upper and in
sole. So perfectly are the three united
that it requires tools and great force to
separate them. The secret of this great
cohesive power lies in the form of the nail,
which has shoulder near its point, and in
section resembles an open harpoon. Hence,
when driven into leather, the latter closes
over the shoulder of the nail and defes all
but the most severe efforts to extract it.
After the sole has been secured the boot is
finished in the usual way, the time occu-
pied in fixing the sole being about half
that required in the ordinary machine
boot process. The value of the system is
strongly attested by practical boot manu-
facturers, and it appears likely to effect a
marked change in the condition of the
wholesale boot manufacturing trade

Italy and the Pope.

Recent declarations proceeding from the
Vatican, more especially the letter ad-
dressed by the Pope to Cardinal Rampolla,
are attracting great attention III Austria.
Of this letter, Monsignor Galimberti. the
Papal Nuncio in this capital, at an inter
view that took place yesterday, made the
following remarks "The Pope" he said
" does not want anything from Italy but
the recognition of his real living indie
pendence. But such recognition is i'm
possible without his territorial sovereignty
BY such concession the national unity of
Italy would not be injured" continued NJ .
Gaiinberti, Z" because the Pope, as a secu-
lar sovereign, will undoubtedly be an Ital-
ian Prince. Moreover, how would it be
possible for the small and powe-les5 terri
tory ruled by the Pope to injure the
Kingdom of Italy? On the contrary,
Italy, on the whole, could not fail TO be
benefited both at home and abroad by the
restoration of the secular power of the
Pope IN Airs, for instance, as well as
N OTHER countries beyond the seas, there
would be whole army of missionaries at
the service Of Italy. An understanding
with the Pope would strengthen not only
Italy, but also her allies. Her internal
peace being restored, she would be stronger
abroad. 1t is still a question open TO de-
bate whether the Pope should retain Rome
only, or certain additional territory; and,
again, whether he should exercise his
sovereign authority in person or through
Governor. Those and other questions of
detail have still to be settled"
Speaking Of Austria, the Nuncio en-
phatically denied that there was any in
tention to introduce the Slav Liturgy
among the Austrian Slavs. The Pope, he
added, acknowledges the noble qualities of
the Emperor, Francis Joseph, with whom
and with whose counselors he wishes to
carry on negotiations uninfuenced by
parties. At the recent controversy between
the Hungarian Government and the Holy
See regarding the transfer of Bishops, the
Nuncio acknowledged the Emperors right
IN the matter.
Most of the Vienna papers, in comment
ing on this conversation, express the belief
that the Italian people will never consent
to the breaking up of the unity of the
Kingdom. A reconciliation between the
Vatican and the Quirinal is, beyond ques-
ton, thing to be desired but, for the
present, it is impossible to see how that
object is to be practically attained if the
programme laid down by Pope Leo is to
be taken literally Fe7sna dispdtch to Lon
